- Kids, I've graded
your mid-term exams.
Some of you
performed atrociously,
while others
stepped up quite well.
- B-minus?
- Oh, don't be mad, Tom,
it was a hard test.
- Mad? I'm ecstatic.
I've never gotten
a B-minus in my life!
- Oh, well.
Congratulations, then.
- Oh, my God, I'm gonna dance.
I can't control myself.
- My man!
I knew you could do it, baby!
- I've never been this happy
in my life. I got a B-minus!
[feedback squeaks]
- Attention, students.
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but this is very urgent.
Tom, I need to see you now.
- Kind of puts a damper
on the B-minus dance.
- Get up right now
and go, go, go, go.
Run towards my office!
- Hey, Principal,
I ran down the hall.
What's going on?
- Tom, it's about your mother.
- My mom? What do you mean?
Is she okay?
- Are you kidding me?
She's better than okay.
She's on fire.
- Wait. I'm not following.
What?
- I'm attracted to your mom,
and I've been watching her
for years at PTA meetings,
at bake sales.
I saw her come out
of the supermarket;
I sat in my car, I got aroused.
- I'm not sure this was
an urgent matter.
- Well, it's urgent for me.
I need a favor.
- Okay.
- When you get home, I want you
to try to casually weave
my name into the conversation.
- Just casually weave it in?
- Casually. Something like,
I don't know, "The principal's
got a great personality.
Hey, ever notice his tush,
Mom?"
- That's not gonna
sound natural.
When I get home, I usually
just say, "When's dinner?"
- Tom, you owe me.
- Do I?
- How do you think
you got a B-minus?
- Hard work?
- I pulled strings, okay?
- Wait, you're saying
it's a fake grade?
- Yeah.
- Oh, this is really going to
a dark place here.
- Not if you know how
the world works,
it's not dark, Tom.
But the most important thing is
please keep this between us.
- Why?
- Well, the school frowns
upon--they almost over-frown
upon principals
hitting on moms.
- My son got a B-minus?
- Yeah, it's no big deal.
- This is amazing!
- Yeah, enough
about me, though.
- I couldn't be more proud.
- Uh, anyway,
on an unrelated note,
I just overheard some of
the moms talking at school.
They really seem to think
the principal is hot.
- Excuse me?
- The principal.
They seem to think he's got--
uh, what was the phrase?
Cute buns or a--
- Cute buns?
- Hot tush.
- So a lot of butt talk
about the principal.
- It was a lot
of different stuff.
They got into the personality,
the fun sense of humor.
- Mm-kay.
- I don't know why
I focused on the--on
the butt comments,
but it was a lot
of positive talk, is all.
- Did the principal tell you
to talk to me about his body?
- You know what?
I think the guy likes you,
so do--do what
you will with it.
- He likes me?
Wow, this day
keeps getting better.
- Oh, it's a good thing?
- Guess what.
The guy's a principal
of a school.
- Okay.
- This guy can declare
snow days.
He can order textbooks in bulk.
He can have bike racks
installed wherever he wants.
- I don't know if that's
considered powerful.
- If I can upgrade
from plumber to principal,
we're back in business.
- Really?
- You tell him I'm in.
- All right. Great.
- Even if it gets weird.
Even if he's into some kink.
Like, whatever kind of date
he wants to go on, I'm in.
- I'll just say you're in.
[classy music plays]
- Excuse me.
When you get a chance,
could we get some, uh,
water from the sink,
and is all the bread free?
- Uh, yes, sir.
All the bread is free.
[crunching]
- And I know
you brought us butter.
If I asked for extra butter,
is that free, too?
- Yeah, that's free also, sir.
[crunching]
- Okay, thank you very much.
- Okay.
[chuckles]
He's being silly
and hilarious.
We're gonna take
the seafood tower
and your classiest wine,
'cause I am on a date
with a principal.
- [chuckles] What do you think
principals make?
- Well, more than my jackass
husband used to make.
Let's get some photos,
make him jealous,
show him how good I'm doing.
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
If this gets out,
I will lose my job.
- No one's gonna see it.
Hey, waiter! Come over.
You're gonna get
some pictures of us. Okay?
- Okay.
- I'm gonna lay on the table.
He's gonna undo his shirt,
and I'm gonna put lobster
on his bare skin
and eat it off of his skin.
- I don't like to do that.
- Oh, okay.
- Oh, geez.
- Okay!
- Oh, that's inappropriate.
- Okay, baby bird some lobster
into my mouth.
- Okay.
[chuckles uncomfortably]
[dramatic tone]
- What have I done?
Oh, this is not good.
- Principal? Is that you?
- Oh, Tom!
Oh, my God.
It's so funny seeing you here.
- It's my house.
This is my kitchen.
- Yeah, I just didn't expect
to see ya--
- Why are you here?
- I stopped by
to go over your grades
with your mother.
- Is that my dad's shirt?
- Oh, that?
I spilled coffee
on my shirt this morning.
And I--
Tom, I'm gonna--I'm gonna
level with you.
I didn't think this thing
with your mom
was gonna escalate so fast.
- Okay.
- I mean, your mom's
a wonderful woman,
but she's a maniac.
- That's a lot to take in.
- TomI'm schtupping
your mother.
- Schtup? What is that?
- We-we you know.
Flippity flip, floppity flop.
Look, I don't know
how to say it in--in a--
- Does it have to do with
pancakes or what are you--?
- Tom, the important thing is
that no can know about this.
If this word gets out,
I'm done.
- All right, so what do you
want me to do?
- Promise me you'll keep it
our secret and I will give you
anything you want at school.
You name it.
- Anything?
- Anything.
- Literally anything?
- Literally anything.
- Just anything,
anything I want?
- Just say it.
- How about, uh, free pencils
and some kind of, uh, pouch
to keep them in?
- Done.
- Really?
- Yes.
- That's amazing.
- Aw, look at my two guys.
Tom, get on his lap.
Principal, you feed him
some pancakes.
We-we need to stick it
to my ex-husband
and to Tina the sl*t.
- This doesn't feel right
at all.
- Let's just get it over with.
[camera shutter clicks]
- Free pencils?
- How sweet is that?
- Man, this guy is throwing rod
in your mom
and all you asked
for was free pencils?
- All I asked for? I'm never
going to need a pencil again.
- Come on, man!
You need to think big.
With a secret like that,
you could ask for anything.
- All right. I mean,
I guess we could try
escalating this a bit.
- Nelson's right.
- Oh, boy. Here we go.
- With blackmail,
you basically own the person.
- Own them?
- In grown-up terms, Tom,
you could say
he's your b*tch now.
- Please don't curse
on the bus.
- Guys, how do you think I got
this sweet bus driving gig?
- You didn't just apply?
- Blackmail.
- Oh.
- Got nude pics
of the bus dispatch guy.
- Henry?
- That's how I have
job security.
I can do whatever I want.
- I'm tempted to say,
can we see them?
- He's sucking his own
d*ck, guys.
- Oh! Hey, hey, hey! Whoa.
- Whoa.
Wow.
- We've got to start sitting
further back on the bus.
[bell rings]
- Hey there, big boss man.
- Oh, wow. Is this peppermint?
Don't mind if I do.
- All right. First of all,
put the peppermints down!
And you guys don't just come
running in here like that.
Do you even
have an appointment?
- Appointment?
- We're not appointment guys.
- Listen, I know what's what.
Tom told me you's banging
his mom
and you offered him pencils.
You offered my man pencils?
- Are you joking?
- Sorry, I crack
under pressure.
I told him.
- This is outrageous.
- We would like to leverage
this to our advantage.
- Yeah, we want to, um, do
a little blackmail type thing.
- We've got a list of demands.
- This is ridiculous!
A VIP card that gets you
out of trouble?
- Laminated.
- Two recesses per day?
Great. And I have to read
an anti-Hector announcement,
oh, that you guys write?
- That's it.
- Come on, I can't do this.
- Who's the principal now,
b*tch?
- Wow.
- All right, all right.
That's too much.
I know we have power now,
but that was crossing the line.
[door opens]
- Um, may I ask why you two
aren't in class?
- You may not.
Talk to the VIP note.
- Oh, my God.
[feedback squeaks]
- All right, guys.
I have an announcement
that I have to read to you.
Hector is stupid.
- What?
- Thank you.
I'm telling you
because if I don't,
nobody else will.
[bell rings]
- Come on, wrap it up.
Recess is over.
- Actually,
we're gonna double dip.
- Double dip?
- Double decker recess,
whatever you want to call it.
You have a problem,
talk to the principal.
- Let's get it on now ♪
- Oh, we are living.
I'm having a great time.
- Wow, I'm having
a good time too.
I mean, but, uh, just, uh,
if you could just ease up
on the churros
because they're $10 each.
- Why would you care about
$10 each?
You're a prina-ci-pal-a.
- Do you mind if I ask
how many you bought?
- 30.
- Oh, my! 30?
Are you kidding me?
That's $300.
- Yeah.
- What are you doing with them?
- A couple I ate, but mostly
I'm just throwing them.
- Hey, knock it off!
- So 2 you ate and 28
you're throwing!?
- I mean, some ratio
akin to that, yeah.
- Oh, my God.
- [grunts]
- Give me my credit card.
Seriously.
- Come and get it.
- I don't want to come
and get it.
- Hey, you.
- Stop throwing the churros,
lady!
- Oh, Nelson.
I like this VIP lifestyle.
- The sun is shining on us.
- Taking a long lunch
while the rest of the chumps
are in the cafeteria.
- This whole mom banging
episode
really worked out in our favor.
- Oh, no.
- What? What?
- What's this? Dakota's mom?
- How many moms
is this guy banging?
- All right,
we gotta stop this.
- We gotta do something.
If he break up with your mom,
our privileges are done.
- This has to end now.
What do we do? Google it.
"How to stop principal
from banging moms."
- "Stop principals
from banging moms."
- "Principal banging
multiple women."
- "Principal banging--" Ugh!
- Nothing comes up?
- We got 18 results.
Only two of them in English.
- Oh, man.
Let's get out of here.
All right. What's the plan?
- We're gonna hack
his computer.
- How are we gonna do that?
- Look, we just need to guess
his password,
then write a break-up email
to Dakota's mom.
- Oh, I love that.
- What do you think
a guy like him
would use for a password?
- I don't know, "principal"
or, uh, "the principal"?
- "The principal." Nope.
- Try "a principal."
- "A principal." Nope.
- Try "I'm the principal."
- "I'm the principal." Nope.
[door opens]
- Hey, guys!
Need some help
with your homework?
- No. We're trying to hack
a grown man's email.
What kind of passwords
do grown men use?
- Try every variation of the
word p*nis, followed by 69.
- How many variations of p*nis
are there?
- Oh, there's a lot.
Are you ready?
- Dong69.
- "Dong69". Nope.
- Rod69.

- Thanks, Dad.
- I'm glad I could help.
- Screw unlimited pencils.
We're getting unlimited
everything.
Now we just need to craft
a carefully worded email.
- All right, let me write it.
I'm pretty smart,
with the B-minus and all that.
- Oh, no. No, Tom.
This is my territory.
I know how adults talk.
You see how I just
talked to that adult?
- All right, you write it.
I'll chime in.
- Let's go.
"Dear Dakota's mom."
- Nice.
- "Pursuant to
my prior obligations"--
- Pursuant. I love that.
- "As per our meeting"
- It sounds like a principal
wrote that. It's amazing.
[whistle blows]
- Come on, everybody!
- Hey, Coach?
I know you got gym class
going on
but can you clear
the floor for us?
- What are you saying?
- Tom and I have chosen
to play a game of one-on-one
today.
- Uh, this is a gym class.
I can't clear the floor
for two kids.
- Oh, he don't know?
- Yeah, he doesn't know.
- Oh, you don't know?
- Talk to the card.
- What is this?
He's giving special treatment
to some kids and not others?
- Hey, I mean, this is the way
the world works, I was told.
- This is what Martin Luther
King marched about.
- Speaking of marches, Coach,
get the marching band together.
We're about to play
full court one-on-one.
- Full court?
- Let me get your whistle.
- Oh, no, no, no, no. You don't
touch my whistle.
- Coach, I hate to pull rank.
- Tom, my whistle will not go
in another man's mouth.
- Give me that whistle.
- No. You're not--
What? No. No.
- Hey, this is the game
of the century, Coach.
You don't want to miss this.

- No, I can't just leave school
to rent mopeds

- Lady, you cannot go in there.
- Hold on. I'll call you
right back.
- No! I said you can't!
- Yes, I am.
- Don't make me
forcibly restrain you.
- Don't touch me like that!
Gah! Oh, she's biting me!
Oh, look who it is.
Principal Dickwad.
What is this email
that you sent?
- I sent an email?
- Don't play dumb,
'cause guess what?
I was smart and I printed it.
I meet with you
to discuss a bake sale,
and then you write back
saying you can't bang me
since you're already
banging Tom's mom?
What is that?
- I didn't write anything.
What are you--
- Dating a student's parent
is strictly off limits.
It's taboo!
- No, I--
- I swear to God,
you better fix this
and you better fix it now.
- You know what?
I'm calling it off,
because she's a handful anyway.
Thank you for swinging by,
because you're doing me
a favor.
- Hey, look who it is.
- I have to break it off.
- Oh, yes, I agree.
This is great.
- You're not upset at all?
- I found out what grade school
principals make.
Heh, you make less than
an average plumber.
- Okay, I'm not dirt poor,
but--

See ya!
- Okay.

- As we say goodbye
to sweet George,
let's remember the better days
when he would sit in his bowl,
and kinda blink.
Guy loved to blink, didn't he?
- He loved to blink.
Yes, he did.
- Nelson, why don't you
do the honors
and shove all of his personal
belongings down the toilet?
- It's not going down.
- Use your foot.
- I'm not putting my foot
in your toilet, Tom.
- Nelson, put your foot
in the toilet.
It's a funeral.
Show some respect.

- All right, fine. I'll do it.
- Don't splash, man!
You're splashing me!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What's going on here?
- Mom, we're giving George
a funeral.
- George died?
We got him three days ago, Tom.
He cost 12 bucks.
- Excuse me. Sorry.
Should I keep playing
the flute through this part?
- Keep playing. It's beaut--
it's really beautiful.
- Dakota, take it away
from your mouth.
- Dakota, please.
- Dakota, no more.
- Oh, my God.
This is the worst funeral ever.
- The funeral's off 'cause
we're going to the pet store

our money back.

- Ow!
- Oh, my God. Stop. Don't.
Give me the fish.

in the toilet,
this was
a very tasteful ceremony.

[cat yowls]
[upbeat '80s music plays]
- Hi, we came here
and we were sold a faulty fish.
And, uh, the fish passed.
So if you just want to credit
that back to the credit card
or give us some cash.
- Sorry, can't do it.
- What's this?
- Can I interest you
in a new fish?
- New fish? No.
- We need a full refund.
- Yeah, here's the thing.
The fish was healthy
three days ago.
He was swimming. He was happy.
Now he's been whacked.
- Whacked?
- Hang on!
Are you trying to say
my son m*rder*d George?
- As corporate policy,
we don't say "m*rder" but yes,
I believe
your son m*rder*d the fish.
- I found the body.
No one's denying that.
- How dare you say
my son, Tom--
- Your son is
standing there, ma'am,
with a blank expression
on his face.
That's what murderers do.
- His face is always blank.
He's a thinker.
- Is--is there
a problem over here?
- This "lady"--
- What? Lady in quotes?
- Is trying to return
a dead fish?
And she's giving me loads of
'tude
because I'm not having it.
- All right, calm down.
Thanks, Casey. I've got this.
Sorry you're upset
and I apologize
for what just happened.
I'm not gonna try
to sell you another fish.
- Okay, thank you.
- But what are your feelings
on gerbils?
- No, there's no way
I'm spending more money.
- Come on, Mom. He's so cute.
- [sighs]
- Yeah, come on, Mom.
Come on, Mom.
- Oh. We can't afford it.
- Oh.
I guess you don't love me?
- Oh, no, Tom.
Do not make sad Tom face.
- You're still a good mom.
Some mothers just care
about money more
than their child's happiness.
[gerbil squeaking]
- Fine!
What's the cheapest gerbil
you've got?
- That would be
a senior gerbil for $75.
- $75?
Are you out of your mind?
- I'm not. Casey has issues,
but I'm doing fine.
- Ugh. You know what?
Fine. Wrap him up.
- Um, we don't say
"wrap them up"

- Casey, I've got this.
At Pet Depot, we happily
wrap up all the animals.
[toilet flushes]
- All right, Larry,
play time's over.
Take a load off. Take a nap.
Make yourself comfortable.
Let's circle back later.
- Hey kid, is your mom around?
That toilet
is completely destroyed.
- You know, she doesn't talk
to plumbers any more.
She told me to-to tell you
to shut up and fix the toilet.
- What's this?
- My dad was a plumber.
It's a sore subject.
- Yes, yes, yes.
Okay, now I know
who we're dealing with here.
- Whoa! Who's this
cute little guy?
- My gerbil, Larry. He's 82.
- Hi, Larry.
What a cutie you are.
- Isn't he cute?
- Yeah, very cute!
Well, this is a little surprise
for me in my day.
- I love him.
- Hi, Larry!
Too bad you have
to live your life in captivity.
You're like a little prisoner,
aren't ya, Larry?
- Prisoner? What's this?
- What'd ya do?
What crime did you do?
- No. He's my pet gerbil.
- I'm just saying his cage
is like a prison.
- Nah, nah, nah. They call
this the "Deluxe Cabana."
It's like he's on vacation.
- When you go on vacation,
where do you--where do you go?
A little room?
- We don't--I don't go
in a little room, no.
- Got'cha, got'cha, got'cha.
You know, I'm just
a simple plumber, "shut up
and get in the bathroom,"
but if you ask me,
we don't have the right
to treat animals as property.
- Well, you know,
he was on sale, so--
- You think selling
a living creature,
does that sound
morally fine to you?
I don't know what your morals
are in this house.
- Selling creatures?
Yeah, you can buy gerbils.
People do that, right?
- Hmm. How would you like
to live in a little teeny cage?
- To be honest, I think I would
thrive in that environment.
- H-how about we take him
for a little spin then?
- What do you mean?
- How about you
pretend you're Larry
for one minute?
- No. Aren't you here
to fix the toilet?
What's happening?
Oh, no. I don't want to get--
No, I'm not getting in there.
No, no.
Please.
- Come on. Hop in here.
- No, get back in the bathroom.
This is too much now.
- Come on. It'll be fun.
Pretend you're Larry.
- This is getting weird.
- [low voice] Come on, just
get in there. It'll be fun.
- That's not
a reassuring voice.
Oh! Hey, hey, hey, hey!
- Ah, there we go.
- Did you lock the door?
What's happening?
- If I could change
one young person's mind,
I've done my good deed
for the day.
And I always do my good deed
for the day.
- I think you oversold
how much fun this was gonna be.
You're not leaving, are you?
What's happening out there?
[knocking on door]
Larry, what's he doing?
- Hi, uh, I need to reschedule
my neck rub.
My son's been missing
for an insane amount of hours.
And it just feels weird
to get a massage right now.
- Mom! Let me out!
- Tom? Are you in there?
- Mom, where you been?
Oh, my God.
- Oh, there you are.
- How long was I in there?
- I haven't seen you
for six hours.
I thought you were kidnapped.
- Oh.
You didn't call
the police, or anything or?
- They do recommend you wait
24 hours.
It's what they say
on all the shows.
- I don't know if that's
the case, but--
- I was worried though.
- Anyway, listen.
I did some soul searching.
I think we got to let Larry go.
- Let him go?
Are you on cocaine, Tom?
- Cocaine? No. What do you do?
How do you--
- We paid a lot
of money for him.
Plus, he's a member
of the family.
With your dad gone,
Larry's the man of the house.
- Wait. Larry's the man
of the house? Not me?
- No.
Larry's a lot older than you.
- All right, fine. Larry stays.
- "All right, fine's"
not gonna cut it.
Raise your right hand.
We're gonna do
a promise pledge.
- What do I say?
- I swear to my mom--
- I swear to my mom--
- That I will not set
Larry free.
- I will not set Larry free.
- I will keep him in this house
as the man of the house.
And if I do not,
then my mother will die.
I pledge on Larry's life. Amen.
- I'm not gonna say that,
but you have my word.
[thunder rumbles]
- [muttering] Larry.
Oh, no. Oh.
sl*ve. Sorry.
Prison. Cage. Prisoner.
- Who gave you the moral
authority to enslave me?
[squeaking]
You get me out of this God
forsaken cage now!
- Larry! Larry! Ahhh!
All right,
so much for the pledge.
That's just not gonna happen.
- Tom, what's going on, man?
I know you guys
got money problems
but there's literally a rat
in your jacket.
- That's not a rat.
It's my gerbil, Larry.
I'm gonna set him free
at the school today.
- Set him free?
- I just want to let him
know the taste of freedom.
I'm gonna let him go
on the soccer field.
Turn him loose.
- The soccer field?
Tom, do you see cleats
on this guy?
- Cleats? On Larry? No.
- Do you see colorful
Umbro shorts?
- I don't.
- Exactly.
You need to leave him
in the wilderness.
He's a wild animal.
- Nelson's right.
- Here we go.
- Gerbils are direct
descendants of wolves, Tom.
- They're not little wolves.
- Tom, there are two things
I know:
buses and rodents.
- Okay.
- This guy's an apex predator.
He needs an ecosystem where he
can thrive and hunt and k*ll.
- Oh. Okay.
So where's the wilderness
in Central Jersey?
- Behind the TJ Maxx
is perfect.
[percussive music]
Sorry, kids.
Emergency pit stop.
Tom needs to hop out
and poop real quick.
- No. Pee. I've gotta pee.
Why would you say that?
- You need all the time
you can get.
- He's right.
I got to take a quick dump.
- Tom, you're gonna make
everybody late for school!
- Just give me,
like, a half hour.
- Why now? We're, like,
two minutes from school!
- Hey, what can I say?
I prefer the woods.
I can't hold it.
I need some privacy
and some time.
[bell rings]
- [clapping]
Okay, little angels.
As you know,
this weekend is our big--
- Hey, Tom?
- Hey.
- Are you okay?
'Cause there've been a lot
of high profile
pooping incidents recently.
- Oh, I wasn't really--
That was a decoy.
I did a good deed.
I set my gerbil free.
- Hm?
- To live in the wilderness.
- What?
- In the woods behind TJ Maxx.
- Tom, gerbils
are domesticated pets.
Without food or water,
he'll die!
- What do you mean?
He's like a wolf.
He's like an apex predator,
I was told.
- What's their prey?
Little pellets
that come in a bag?
- Excuse me, you two.
Is there something
more important
going on than syncopation?
- Tom's gerbil's in the woods
behind TJ Maxx
and if we don't find him now,
he's gonna die!
- Your gerbil is on the loose?
- I'm on it.
I'll blast out
a community alert.
Tom, what's the reward?
- Oh, just put down a dollar.
My mom has money problems.
- No, no. That's not enough.
Um, I'm gonna put in 10,000!
- 10,000? No, no, no!
- Done. Let's go.
- Done?
- A 10 G gerbil!
- No, we--we never established
the 10 G's.
- Are you kidding me?
Let's go find that gerbil!
- Loser, swipe.
Fake hair, swipe.
Fingered me
in a parking lot, swipe.
"$10,000 reward
for missing elderly gerbil
in woods behind TJ Maxx."
Son of a b*tch.
[tires squeal]
[dramatic music]
[children shouting anxiously]
[squeaking]
- Okay, everyone.
Welcome to the manhunt.
I really appreciate
you coming out.
As a very wise plumber
once told me,
"Every life is precious."
[tires screech,
pop music playing]
- Hi, everyone. Attention! Hi.
Hello.
I'm Tom's mom.
I'm in control here.
And to clarify,
there's no reward.
That was a joke.
- A joke? What happened
to the ten grand?
- I'm gonna get fired
'cause I helped you search
for this gerbil!
- I'm gonna leave.
- Okay, fine.
For argument's sake,
let's say there's a reward.
You'll get $10,000.
Of my own money.
Now, I'm gonna have Tom,
my son here,
explain who we're looking for.
- Thanks, Ma.
Well, he's of average weight.
And average height.
Average gerbil height.
Standard gerbil color.
In the beige family.
- Yeah, that doesn't help.
- All right, he's elderly.
So when you search,
it's important that you yell,
"Here, sweet baby Larry!"
- So we're just looking
for a nondescript animal
in a large wooded area
while we're screaming,
"Here, sweet baby Larry."
- Oh, last thing.
You need to cut up
some sliced pears and say,
"Who's ready for din din?"
I know it's a lot.
I know it's a lot.
- Now, please,
can we get serious
and go find that gerbil?
[indistinct chatter]
- Tom, we need to find
Larry ourselves
or it's coming out
of your college fund.
- Ugh. You're not great
at pep talks.
♪
- Sweet baby Larry!
- Larry! Larry, Larry, Larry!
- Here, sweet Larry.
- Who's ready for din din?
[overlapping "Larry"]
- Tom, it's been two hours
and we've gone through
five pounds of pears.
- We can't give up.
We can't give up.
- Oh, my gosh! Guys!
I think I found
sweet baby Larry.
[squeaking]
- That's amazing!
Hold on to him! I'm on my way!
- I'm gonna get $10,000 rewa--
Ow!
- I got him, people!
The gerbil is safe.
And I just saved 10 G's!
- Ah! Great job, Mom!
Ah, it's so good
to have Larry back.
- This is amazing.
What a happy ending!
- Everyone, over here!
He's alive.
Larry, say thank you
to the crowd.
[cheers and applause]
- Ahhh!
Oh, son of a b*tch hawk!
[hawk caws]
- Maybe I'm just not cut out
to be a pet owner.
- I tried to warn you.
Do not talk to plumbers.
You talk to a plumber,
the next thing you know
a hawk's flying off
with your gerbil.
